Imago.— Male. Uppersicle dark olivescent-brown ; marginal lines pale-brown ; 
cilia cinereons-brown. Forewing with the transverse discal band of the underside 
sometimes slightly visible, and with a lower median very small white-pupilled black 
spot. Hmdiving with a tuft of yellowish radiating hairs arising within the cell from 
below the base of subcostal vein and overlapping a glandular patch of black scales at 
its first branch. 
Underside dark viriaceous ockreous-brown ; with a very narrow purplish-white 
transverse discal band, and two marginal ochreous lunular lines. Forewing with four 
submarginal distinct ocelli, the two middle of which are always very minute and 
placed externally between the upper and lower, the whole four being encompassed by 
a narrow constricted purplish-white ring; in some few specimens the upper and 
lower ocelli only are present, each then being encircled by a separate purplish-white 
ring (as in the variety named Samba [fig. 1, b, plate 59] ; others, again, have only 
one of the middle minute ocelli developed between the upper and lower, and 
all encompassed by the outer purplish-white constricted ring (as in the variety de¬ 
scribed by Fabricius, as Blasius , and by Mr. Butler, as Cepheus ) ; occasionally, also, 
a male specimen has a fifth or lower minute ocellus attached below the large median 
ocellus, and encompassed by the outer ring ; others, again, sometimes occur, in which 
the two upper ocelli are separately encircled by the purplish-white outer ring, the 
two lower being similarly encircled. In all these varieties the glandular patch of 
scales on the middle of the submedian vein is small and black . Hindiving with a re¬ 
curved submarginal series of seven distinct ocelli, of which the second, third, and 
seventh are very small, and all encompassed by a purplish-white lunular line. 
Female. Uppersicle. Both wings with the transverse discal narrow band of the 
underside slightly visible; the marginal lines more distinct. Forewing with the very 
small white-pupilled black spot between the medians always present. Underside 
paler than in the male; the transverse narrow discal band and marginal lines more 
prominent. Forewing with the four submarginal ocelli, the two middle of which are
